I still wonder what ARAMCO will do, if anything. I know they paid the ransom for their Tanker, but they have a history of not bening a forgive and forget type of Company. I would wonder just how many merceneries, currently in their employ, are training a Somalian force to deal with the Pirates. It's their former mode of operation. Payback is hell, isn't it!

I may be way off base on this, but one thought to consider is that the insurance companies are making huge profits on this piracy thing, so with the economy going south they are willing to pay up a few ransume claims to continue thier cash cow.
Anyone with first hand knowledge prove me wrong?
